Lamar has that kind of pull???? I'm thinking the ratings weren't all that great, lol.
Don't know, lol. I was just surmising that low ratings may have been a factor. Perhaps someone else may know?
Right. The show was a flop. Of course the cast doesn't want to admit to that, tho.
Here's the story I found:
TLC’s Starter Wives Confidential Cancelled Due To Poor Ratings, 50 Cent Claims Otherwise
TLC’s Starter Wives Confidential series was finished before it got really started. The show which featured the ex-girlfriends and baby mommas of artists and athletes like 50 Cent, DMX, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Lamar Odom was cancelled after just two episodes. 50 Cent claimed he had a hand in its demise, but the network says otherwise.
Reports TMZ:
You’ll recall, the reality show was cancelled a few days after its Jan. 29 debut. Many believed it was due to a slew of problems plaguing the show — including 50 Cent’s outspoken dislike of his ex’s participation.
Even one of the stars, Monica Joseph-Taylor (Flex’s ex) was confused by the sudden purge, writing on her blog, “Is it ratings? Is it a change in network direction…or all the outside drama?!”
TMZ obtained a letter — written from the network to the cast members — which sets the record straight.
The letter states, “Unfortunately, due to the low ratings, the remaining episodes will not air on TLC, but will be viewable on TLC.com.”
It continues, “The decision by TLC isn’t personal, although I know it is to you all, and for that we are very sorry. You ladies gave your all to the show and everyone at TLC is very disappointed that the viewers didn’t take this ride with us.”
Never one to pass on an opportunity to talk ish, and promote his headphones, 50 Cent took to Twitter to claim that it was his influence that got the show canned. “I want to apologize to cast of Starter Wives for having the show pulled off the net work.i sincerely hope you find work.#smsaudio,” tweeted the “In Da Club” rapper on Monday, Feb. 18. “The show was trash,angry ex girls that have a sense of entitlement that cant be met. Come on, I didn’t like it so its off. #SMSaudio.”
50 Cent’s lawyer had previously sent a cease & desist to TLC informing the network that cast member Shanequa Tompkins was legally not able to participate as soon as heard the series was filming. Tompkins was only seen in the premiere episode, briefly explaining why she wouldn’t be participating.
Starter Wives Confidential debuted January 29 and as of this post there are three full episodes online right here.

Hahah! Alicia is most definitely tomboyish. I don't see that in Khloe either; but I also wouldn't die of shock to find out that she might prefer tacos to burritos as they say. What I am pretty sure of is that as speculated, she isn't pregnant yet because she doesn't want to be, for whatever reason.
I highly doubt any of the men have that kind of pull with any network.
I found the show semi-interesting and I'm surprised it didn't do well since it sounds like it's pretty similar to Basketball Wives, et al. (I've never consistently watched any of the other shows). I admit I watched SW for the Khloe/Lamar dirt. :/

None of the dudes have that pull all those 50 has been tweeting claiming he had the show pulled. He did have his ex pulled off the show. Their ratings were really low. I heard it had dropped down in the 300K for one of the three weeks. It never reached 1 million viewers.
5o is a funny dude.

Umm...that peplum dress Kim has on is calling my name. I am obsessed with floral prints :shame:
Edit: Just saw that it's not floral but still v. cute.
What's going on with Delonte? Hope he gets back in the league. I hate how they did him.
Anyway, I know when those rumors hit about Khloe being jealous that Kim was pregnant there were two tweets from Khloe that had me thinking.

I know from that Oprah interview that last thing she said about them having a child is they'll be pregnant maybe in a couple more years. So, I knew then she wasn't in a rush.
